  1. Tea For One is fucking amazing. Best song on the album, IMHO. I love the slow burn of it, I love how it starts off a little chunky and then the bottom drops out of it and it becomes this slow, rumbling blues number. Great stuff.
  2. It was '78 and as far as I can see, no he didn't play on it.
  3. He didn't. I have all three of his solo albums (on vinyl) and he's not listed and looking online, he's not listed either.
  4. I love Classic Rock radio and frankly, don't get the abject hate for it some people seem to have. Without stations like WLUP and WJMK in Chicago, I never would have developed the love for the artists that I do. It's the music my parents listened to when they were my age, so it's what was on in the house.
  5. We know where Yukon Cornelius comes from. You weren't really informing us of anything new.
  6. Your pet peeve was based on facts not in evidence. That would be like me saying my pet peeve is the sky being green.
  7. Do you realize that over 80% of the posts on this page are you whining about something? God damn.
  8. It's bad juju to think too far in advance. All I care about is getting through this round.
  9. Wings win, 4-1. They can eliminate the Ducks on Tuesday, I believe.
  10. I love to bake. I have a ton of old cake recipes from the 40s and 50s that were in magazines of the time.....most for Swans Down Cake Flour. One of my favorites is the Spring Blossom Cake with Pale Lemon frosting. It's divine.
  11. I expect nothing less from this person.
  12. You may not like this, but as long as you're living at home and living there rent-free with meals and laundry service provided, suck it up and deal with it. Parents have the right to be arbitrary. One minute they'll let you go do something and then the next minute they won't let you go do something else, even if the two things are similar. It sucks, but that's how it is. Risk getting into bigger trouble by sneaking out and getting wasted or whatever it is people do at AC/DC concerts at the age of 16-17, but don't get PO'd then if they drop the hammer on you for it if they find out. I guess I was that weird kid that obeyed her parents. *shrugs* Then again, they let me go to concerts by myself so I had no reason not to.
  13. Here's a hint; it's not Henry Fonda, since Henry Fonda is dead. It's Sam Walton, the man who put the "Wal" in Walmart.
  14. Speaking of backyards, you have no idea how happy I was to see our backyard the first time we checked out the new house. We never had one before; back in Georgia, because of all the shading from the trees, grass had a hard time growing so we had a ton of patches of just red clay. Here we have a HUGE green lawn. It's gorge.
  15. Women who wear clothes that don't fit. Now, I'm a tad fluffy so there's certain clothes I just can't wear. I'd look ridiculous and I don't like looking ridiculous. No, I can't wear belly shirts and hip huggers (well I do, but my stomach is covered) but I like to look cute anyway. What I can't stand is larger women who dress like they're size 4s. YOU'RE NOT. It looks incredibly horrible and worse, it looks like you're delusional. You can dress your size and still be cute and hot and all that jazz.
  16. My dad's favorite cake is pistachio cake, and we use two boxes of it. One goes in the regular white cake mix, the other in the frosting. We usually combine it with Dream Whip and it's fantastic.
  17. She probably uses cream cheese or something similar, I've never actually seen an ambrosia salad made without it. You can steal my grandmother's recipe if you want it! 2 packages of softened cream cheese 1 huge tub of whipped topping 1 can of Bing cherries 2 cans of crushed pineapples (drained) 1 bag of mini marshmallows
  18. This is like an ambrosia salad, but I don't know if my grandmother ever gave it a name - it's her recipe. As kids, my sister and I just used to call it the "cherry salad". Sometimes my mom puts marshmallows in it, although this time she didn't. I will say it's very refreshing on a hot day. Tastes like the inside of a cheesecake.
  19. Funny, I find Father's Day to be just as promoted as Mother's Day. Probably because Father's Day occurs in June, so you have better weather so there's more emphasis on doing outdoorsy stuff with Dad....barbeques, baseball games, lawn work, football, stuff like that. On Father's Day, my dad always grills and we always go to a baseball game, if the local team is playing. If not, we camp out and watch a game on TV. I honestly think spats hates women, or at least has "mommy issues" that are the root of all his problems. I mean, why else complain about Mother's Day.
  20. My mom's salad - I don't know what it's called, but she mixes two packages of cream cheese and a huge tub of whipped topping with a can of Bing cherries and two cans of crushed pineapples. It's AMAZING.
  21. Not again. No seriously, not again.
  22. Thank you. She had a rough pregnancy last go around, so she's hoping this one goes smoother.
